Jayson Tatum has 31 in the first half (ties his personal best) ‼️
Jayson Tatum erupted in the first half against the Brooklyn Nets. Boston's superstar was pure fire, absolutely dominant, scoring from everywhere. MVP?
In a performance out of this world, Jayson Tatum torched the Brooklyn Nets' defense, JT was showing all his skills and looked unguardable. He tied his personal best in scoring, and had huge dunks to demonstrate his dominance.

Here we can see Tatum's basketball IQ at full display. First setting up a great pick, and then recognizing the mismatch, rolling with force towards the rim. The smaller Cam Thomas has nothing to do once Jayson gets the ball, who proceeds to finish with a powerful dunk.
In addition, Tatum had 31 points game by half-time, shooting 10-17 from the field. 4-7 from three. He also cashed every free throw he got (7-7), grabbed 6 rebounds, dished 3 assists with -attention to this- 0 turnovers. Truly remarkable performance, he's the best player in the NBA's best team, building a strong case for this year's MVP Trophy.
